On this episode of the Gap, Tammy and Althea cover some recent news, national and local. We discuss Biden's federal marijuana reform, dyeing a waterfall for a gender reveal, and we go deep on Portland midterm election news. City Commissioner Mingus Mapps has revealed his plans for an alternative reform to the Portland City Commission structure. We discuss the differences with the current Measure 26-228 that's in front of voters this November. Mapps wants to abandon the commision structure, but adds back in certain aspects that would make city politics less democratic. 

Then, we ask, what is something you thought you invented, but was actually already in existence? There are no original thoughts, but maybe that's not such a bad thing after all.
